"In the truly remarkable introductory chapter, the book describes a
uniquely comprehensive and well-thought-through model for
integrating evidence-based assessment with knowledge on the
multiple contexts and domains of child and family functioning.
Subsequent chapters, organized by this overarching model, present
diverse measures across common developmental themes. The book will
guide researchers and clinicians in comprehensive case formulation
and evaluation of clinical and adaptive functioning. It would also
be an excellent core text for graduate-level courses in
psychopathology or clinical assessment."--Alan E. Kazdin, PhD,
Department of Psychology, Yale University
"Mash and Barkley offer the field an incredible resource with this
fourth edition. Leading experts provide the latest information on
assessing a broad range of disorders, covering diagnostic criteria
and processes; parent, teacher, and self-report instruments;
reliability and validity of measures; and strategies for working
with individuals, families, and other practitioners. The
developmental systems approach taken throughout the text represents
a cutting-edge perspective on child and adolescent assessment.
Professionals and graduate students will find this an up-to-date,
forward-thinking work that will have a strong impact on both
research and practice."--Karen R. Harris, EdD, Peabody College of
Education, Vanderbilt University
"Synthesizing a wealth of theoretical, empirical, and practical
information, this fourth edition is a tour de force. Despite the
title’s emphasis on assessment, the volume moves beyond diagnosis
per se to address the many biological and contextual influences on
children’s functioning. Its recommendations are informed by current
perspectives on converging etiological factors, developmental and
situational variations in the manifestations of problems, and the
importance of considering both dimensional and categorical models
of problem behavior. All serious scholars of child and adolescent
psychopathology will want to have this classic work in their
library."--Susan B. Campbell, PhD, Department of Psychology,
University of Pittsburgh
"Emphasizing a developmental systems approach, and written by
experts in the field, this fourth edition is a 'must read' for
experienced professionals and students alike. Comprehensive in
scope and highly readable, the text is well suited for use in the
upper-level undergraduate or graduate classroom. Within its pages,
professionals will find a wealth of practical information to guide
their work with children, adolescents, and families suffering from
early-onset behavioral health disorders. I highly recommend this
book."--Daniel F. Connor, MD, Department of Psychiatry, University
of Connecticut Medical School"For almost 30 years, Assessment of
Childhood Disorders has served as a guide to the tools used in
clinical assessments as well as the issues....Perfect for graduate
students and practicing clinicians, as well as behavioral science
researchers interested in getting up to date on conditions that may
relate to their own work....Much has changed since the last time
the text was published (in 1997), and so those who benefited from
the earlier edition would do well to update their libraries with
this one."--Metapsychology Online Reviews, 12/25/2009
